because he gets stronger by doing so?
if he is only interested in being the strongest swordsman he won't which is my point .

difference is shanks has and will
so shanks continued to challenge stronger people
mihawk did not
mihawk has essentially capped himself
shanks has not.
Drop some names
Yonko didnt meet in decades
Wb even said he didnt remember shanks name in a while
What says mihawk didnt continued to fight strong mfs?
 
Mihawk could've just kept training off screen
the jump one gains from fighting tougher opponents def feels better than training with animals on a distant island
suppose he has been training all those years which am sure he has
what has he done to show evidence of his training /growth in the past 12 years. nothing cause for 12 yrs he hasn't challenged the people who are stronger than him .

Lazy is the way
Just like Sanji with All Blue & Nami with World Map & Chopper with All Healing Cure ... etc
Yep but there is no World best doctor, world best navigator etc

Swordman title seems to be recognized as something to compete for. Something you need to chase other swordmen to beat them and settle yourself as the best.

So yeah having Mihawk, Zoro as challenger and no one else to compete is a bit lame.


It's like we are reading a Manga about Sports where Mihawk is declared as Greatest Soccer Player in the World
And then the Author introduces most Major & Best Characters to be Soccer Players instead of other Sports, what do you expect?
Obviously Mihawk is Strongest
Yeah but the manga is about pirate king, accomplishments, being free, having straw hats etc. So Roger is the top dog and superior to Mihawk. Black blade or not.

Mihawk can’t beat Roger.


Did Straw Hats in East Blue even heard of Yonko System? Ofc not, they only heard about them very late
Actually Buggy had to explain who Whitebeard is to his Crew so they have an idea of how great he is
How he did it? By comparing him to Roger, because Pirate King is the more Famous Title
Do you know which Title is also more Famous than Yonko? It's WSS
Everyone is knowing who Roger is. His shadow looms quite larger than Mihawk one.

Dragon title is more known too.
 
I won't enter that discussion but reigning supreme in something literally nobody but a single character in a 1000 chapter manga seems to care is just not interesting.
It doesn't matter who and who not cares about the WSS title. You automatically become a contender for the WSS title or even become the WSS yourself, if you display the strength necessary. Whitebeard didn't care about being called the WSM either, yet he was given that title though his actions and power. Mihawk himself isn't even interested in being the WSS; he waits for the swordsman to surpass him, even trains him.

do you think one's fighting style is more relevant to their strength than their haki?
Haki is an essential skill for a master swordsman. Mihawk said one has to achieve hardening, for every scratch on one's blade is a shame. Hyo said that through using Ryuo, the swordsman becomes one with his blade. And not long ago we learned that you can infuse your swordsmanship with CoC too.

Problem is; Whitebeard also had top level Hakis, he had a supreme grade blade too, he even had the world's strongest paramecia on top of it. While Roger was just a swordsman. Which shows that the skill itself (way of the sword, or grace as Mihawk phrased it, which makes a sword powerful) is immensely powerful. You can't argue with Haki since all the top tiers have high level Haki and Roger in particular incorporates it with swordsmanship.
 
In Oda's mind, Roger, Rayleigh, Shanks and Law are all swordsmen. Like it or not, stop being in delusional denial: that's reality, you have to accept it.
Otherwise it's you against the author.

This comes from the Usopp Pirate Gallery, where fans send their drawings and Oda gives them a comment based on the content. Well, guess what? Oda's comment on this was "A gathering of swordsmen! Get cut and it'll hurt!". No one even asked him about swordsmen. He willingly freely decided to label those characters like that.

So, all the characters in the picture are swordsmen, by Oda's word. Roger, Rayleigh, Cavendish, Law, Oden, Zoro, Shanks, Mihawk, Shiryu, Hatchan, Kaku, Vista; all of them are swordsmen. It's not my opinion or someone's theory. It's Oda's word.
OPS... I can hear the rustled jimmies.



Lmao Zorotards are using manga facts? Cope hard...
Post automatically merged:

the best argument lihawk stans can make :suresure:
No arguments needed against you retards...Cope freak :milaugh:
 
the comment is about roger looking at it purely in context
but if roger had no df the obvious secret to his strength lies in his willpower.

a comparison that rings closer to his protege who like him isnt after the great swordsman title, does not have a black blade, said to have an overwhelming willpower and is said to currently be the freest person on the seas. Not mihawk.
True but despite all that Mihawk and Shanks are always hinted to be equals not only in the manga but other sources as well.

Mihawk having a Black blade is also a legendary feat since only two guys in history have done that.
 
Then why did he fight mihawk ? Why does he still try to ?
Whys he upgraded his sword to the highest rank ? If he doesn't care
Because he probably had fun fighting him?
Shanks doesn't have a black blade so he didn't upgrade anything.
I mean I can give you that, two characters in the entire series cared enough about Mihawk.

Never expected these would be points open for discussion. :tchpepe:

World's Strongest Swordsman

He did upgrade he went from fodder swords as a kid to a named blade likely the highest rank
Why is he getting stronger swords if he doesn't care about being a stronger swordsman
